Kino Red Dot International Kabaret 2026
About the event
One of our biggest event of this year is coming to Singapore, and we want you in on it.
A Kabaret is a fun, intense filmmaking challenge. Over a few days, participants write, shoot and edit short films from scratch, with a screening at the end of each session. You pitch an idea, form a crew on the spot, and make it happen, fast, together, and for the joy of it. It's surprising what a tight deadline unlocks: in a few days you can produce what sometimes isn't doable over a whole month. No experience needed, everyone is welcome, from seasoned filmmakers to complete newcomers.
This is an international edition, so we'll be joined by Kinoistas from around the world. It's a rare chance to work side by side with filmmakers from other chapters, swap techniques, and make films that none of us could make alone.
Programme:
• 🥂 Welcoming party, Thursday 12 November, 7pm, Essen @ The Pinnacle • 🎬 Session 1: Fri 13 Nov production meeting, Sun 15 Nov screening • 🎬 Session 2: Mon 16 Nov production meeting, Wed 18 Nov screening
📍 Kino Lab: The Arizon, 538 Geylang Rd
What's a production meeting? Directors pitch their film ideas to the room, and crews form on the spot with the people present. Come with an idea, or come to join a team.
